A spicy, chile-laden filling is rolled in corn husks and then steamed in a flavorful broth. These tamales do take some time, but invite friends over and make it a communal effort or do it in stages, time permitting. The filling can be made one day, then refrigerated for up to several days before rolling and steaming the tamales. Once cooked, the tamales hold well in the refrigerator for up to several days and can also be frozen and then microwaved to reheat.

Duck and wild mushrooms are the perfect partners in this rich, earthy gumbo. Should you happen to have a duck hunter in your family, feel free to subsitute an equal weight of wild ducks for truly deep duck flavor.
